Modelling for Wella Hair Coloring Workshop =)






Pls pardon the background cos i hid inside the washroom at Ion to take pics...lol ;p

This was the first time tt leechie has modelled for Wella hair coloring workshop =) had my leechie hair colored dark purplish red (wine color) after consultation n analysis were done by the Wella experts who flew in from Europe!

They have this really cool machine there manz...the experts placed a probe to scan n analyze various sections of my leechie hair...well, if u have seen leechie in person or my pics before...u would know tt my leechie hair color was really far from being homogeneous...the lower section of my leechie hair turned v.yellow since the last color job...the mid section looked brown (cos i did a roots retouch earlier in the year)...n my roots looked dark brown...the salons tt i went to previously tried to cover my leechie hair with a darker color to try to make my hair color look more uniform from the roots to the ends...but gosh, my hair color always turned out v.patchy...darker near the roots n much lighter nearer the ends =.=" the experts printed out a "recipe" from the machine on the prescribed method to color my leechie hair. the color tt was prescribed was a dark reddish brown o.O

The lady color technician who did my hair color worked as an instructor at a hairdressing school prior to joining Wella n she's been working here at Wella for almost 15 years ler...so she's v.experienced! i like her hair color...ash brown with copper shades...v.nicely done =) she followed the prescribed "recipe" to color my leechie hair...both her n the senior male staff who did the analysis thot tt i have permed hair...so they were v.surprised when i told them tt i have natural curls ;p

They trimmed strands of my leechie hair before n after coloring...the experts checked on my hair after coloring...n tried to match the color to the color samples on the color chart...my hair near the roots looks dark red...then the color on the lower section looks slightly different...the color nearer the ends looks purplish red...the conclusion tt they drew was tt using the machine n following the prescribed method is better than the usual conventional way of hair coloring =)

I was asked if i like my new hair color...so i answered candidly tt i haven't tried such a dark color before...so it's something v.new to me =) this is the first time tt i've tried such a dark n striking hair color...my leechie mum used to joke tt she could see me easily in the crowd cos of my light hair color...lol ;p this wine color looks v.rich n certainly makes my leechie hair look more healthy...n i'm v.happy tt my hair color looks uniform from the roots to the ends now! =) i dont need to put up with much darker roots n lighter hair ends anymore!yay ;p this wine color suits my skintone too...i'm already v.fair but it seems to make me look even fairer n accentuates my naturally rosy cheeks =) i received quite a few compliments on my new hair color...some frenz even said tt this hair color makes leechie look younger...which cant b a bad thing ya ;p

Btw, my fb frenz were debating n joking abt what color i shld color my hair prior to this workshop...some of the suggestions were yellow, orange, blue, red, purple, gold, black, reddish brown...n even rainbow n white!!! lol ;p btw, my fren colored her hair rainbow colors previously when she brought in a korean hair color brand n did it to promote the colors...quite cool...tt was when i got to know her abt 10yrs ago...lol ;p my natural hair color has a v.strong yellow undertone n whatever color tt i did previously turned yellowish after a few washes...i tried various shades of browns n blondes...i thot tt ash brown is cool but it didnt last too...i also tried bleached streaks n the stylist put on blue dyes n it looked green...but tt too only lasted a week...copper color lasts on me...n red is the worst...it turned yellowish after only 3 washes...n i wash my hair everyday manz =.=" i havent tried purple before...n WHITE is a color tt i'll never try...so for those who suggested white, i give them moral support to dye their hair white! Really hope tt this wine color will last longer on a leechie o.O

Btw, leechie had a blast at Johnnie Walker private event...opened 2 bottles of Johnnie Walker Black Label =) i'm the waitress of the nite...really enjoyed pouring drinks...well, my frenz look drunk ;p thx Johnnie Walker for the memorable bday celebration this year =) took lotsa pics...photos r still in my fren's cam...so stay tuned for the pics ya ;p

Update:
It has been more than a week since my hair coloring job n i'm pleasantly surprised tt my leechie hair color still looks wine...pretty good ya =)

Leechie is a blur kid...i actually walked into my fren's shop n bot stuff there without realizing tt it's her shop...until i went ovr to her other shop n her staff told me abt it...i actually saw her mum with a small boy n thot tt they looked familiar...but i told myself tt many aunties look alike...until i found out tt it's really her mum n the small boy is her son...blur leechie =.="

Leechie is a blur kid these few days...i keep getting my dates wrong -.-" thot tt loreal sales starts on 15 dec instead of 15 nov n thot tt tangs sale was supposed to b thurs instead of tue...forgot abt stereolab anniversary party too...so i missed out on alot stuff! the tangs shu staff sold off the item tt they had reserved for me -.-" only managed to go down to loreal sales n tangs today...bot mascaras n eyeliner n lotsa shampoos...the keratase mgr was v.nice n patient n redken staff were v.nice too =)

Btw, happened to pass by Gucci juz nw...not sure if i'm being recognized or what...but walked right into the Gucci Bamboo Bag Exhibition event...not tt i mind the champagne served...lol ;p thinking if my uncle-ish frenz were to see this, bet they will associate Gucci with leechie again =.=" but i gotta say tt Gucci didnt pay leechie any endorsement fees =.="

Was out the entire day...went HQ for seminar...then pop by Anteprima Sale n bought a gold bag n black organizer...then had red wine at Skin Inc Anniversary party...then went to company movie event...dozed off during the Rapunzel 3D movie...my 1st 3D movie...then went Yello Jello Anniversary party...walked so muchie today tt i'm dead dead tired manz! -.-" then so tired tt it was already 2pm when i woke up the next day...damn tired manz...was supposed to attend seminar...but ended up shopping instead ;p

"A right relationship is not about how much Love you have in the beginning but how much Love you build till the end..."
i juz wanna a simple guy who will ♥ the leechie underneath my supposedly glamorous facade...is this such a tall order? =.="

Guess what? after all those observations abt how some guys prefer some less aesthetically pleasing older women...i juz won a Tri-Aktiline wrinkle filler...some consolation or i guess prevention is better than cure eh? lol ;p thx Beautymap for appreciating my leechie musings =)
